"That Means I Would Be Immortal!"

However, recently a journalist from The Mirror asked Arsenal if he would like to remain at the club for such a period. Wenger replied:

Honestly, I would love to be here forever because that would mean I would be immortal! I'm not naive enough to believe that. What I would like to do as long as I am here is to give my best for this club.

One thing is certain: Wenger will be immortal in the hearts of Arsenal fans.

"I Think I Deserve a Bit More Credit"

2013 was the year of Arsene Wenger's prickliest ever press conference.

Following the FA Cup exit to Blackburn, he faced a difficult chat with the media before Arsenal's daunting clash with Bayern. However, the newspapers had recently printed an unfounded story suggesting he was on the verge of signing a new contract.

Wenger retaliated. According to The Daily Star's Greg Heffer, he said:

I work for 16 years in England, I think I deserve a bit more credit than wrong information that has only one intention: to harm.

Wenger felt let down and betrayed by the media, and he wasn't afraid to show it.

"We'll Try to Sign Him in an Amicable Way, If Possible."

Arsene Wenger's pursuit of Luis Suarez was one of the stories of the summer.

Arsenal's bid sparked a war of words between Liverpool and the Gunners. In the heat of the negotiations, Wenger attempted to defuse the situation, and Jim Daly of The Mirror quoted him as saying:

I don't want to speak about Suarez, because that is between Liverpool and Arsenal. We will completely respect what Liverpool wants to do. We want to (sign the player) if it is feasible in an amicable way.

Unfortunately for Arsenal fans, Liverpool were resolute, and Suarez remained at Anfield.

"It Was Not the Most Subtle Thing We Have Done"

Wenger took the opportunity to admit Arsenal's pursuit was ill-guided, admitting in Sam Wallace's article in The Independent that the bid aimed at triggering his release clause had been unnecessarily aggressive and based on inaccurate information.

This is the most recent of Arsene Wenger's quips.

After Artur Boruc's error against Arsenal, dallying on the ball before being robbed by Olivier Giroud, Wenger told the official Arsenal website that he prevents Wojciech Szczesny from making the same mistake by asking the Pole to kick the ball out to his manager on the touchline!
